LET'S KICK THIS Thing INTO High GEAR.
First up, it's a brilliant Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC character reveal. A brief cinematic reveals the new character to be Sephiroth from Closing Fantasy VII. I didn't expect that. Twitch chat is going silly. We thought Mario was lifeless... however he is okay. Phew.
Brie Larson is right here to current the primary award. It's for the perfect Performance and it goes to Laura Bailey for her performance as Abby within the Last of Us Part 2. It also appears her cellphone is dinging, which is a nice little touch and a reminder everyone's doing this thing from house this 12 months.
To not mess with Geoff however I really feel like this suit is somewhat bland. Carn, massive G.
Here's One other WORLD PREMIERE. This one is coming from The Initiative, one of the studios beneath Xbox Recreation Studios. The trailer starts with a beautifully-rendered Earth and space station. We're flying by means of a futuristic world and then... out of nowhere we hear the identify Agent Darkish. It is a trailer for Good Dark. WOW.
One other WORLD PREMIERE. This one is all zombies... and it looks like we could be getting a new Left four Dead... it's really Back four Blood. "We wished to do more and bigger," says Chris Ashton from Turtle Rock. He throws straight into gameplay for Again 4 Blood... observe: Pre-Alpha. We'll submit it down the bottom of the web page when it is ready. It's coming in June 2021.
So, uh, anyone know when we'd get one other award? Ha! Just kidding, awards, aschmords. Give me the hype trailers.
Hood Outlaws & Legends will get a trailer, then Nintendo drops an Indies showcase which ...look. I can not keep up with that guys. I'm only human. I am but one man. At this point, I'm extra RSI than man. My wrist is bouncing all around the place. I need carrot cake.
AWARD TIME. We're back with some actual awards and there's a fantastic little second with Sean Murray, head on No Man's Sky. It's absolutely beautiful how far that recreation has come. There was such an uproar at its launch and now look at it, successful a Game Award for Best Ongoing Sport beating the likes of Fortnite ... Cool.
One other WORLD PREMIERE. I am just copy-pasting world premiere now. I'll dream of world premieres when i sleep tonight. However here we go along with The Callisto Protocol? It looks as if a sci-fi title and also maybe a horror title? There is a two-mouthed monster. It has one mouth after which one other mouth under. How would you kiss it? The highest mouth first? Lots of questions here. Form of got Dead House vibes from it... We deserve a new Useless Area.
Wait. Putting Distance studios CEO Glen Schofield is a survival horror set on Jupiter's moon Callisto. Sure. Give it to me. Callisto is considered one of Jupiter's forgotten moons. We all the time hear about bloody Io, Europa and Ganymede. Get out.
QUICKFIRE AWARDS TIME. Here we go with four awards. Finest VR/AR, Finest Sports/Racing, Best Motion, Best Art Path.
Elden Ring grabs... not likely an award but probably the most Anticipated Sport. That is the George R. R. Martian game, from the creators of Darkish Souls. Ought to be goooooood.
WORLD PREMIERE, Once more. This one appears to be like delightful. It's called Open Roads. Test the trailer as a result of my fingers are sore however that is from the Gone Home crew. Will likely be legit.
Disco Elysium: The ultimate Lower is coming in March 2021, a free improve for all players. Can I call this a World Premiere? I assume so. It's a WORLD PREMIERE. Can't wait to count up these World Premieres later and completely flip out. This is all going so fast. It's insanity.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. A big one. It's for Dragon Age. I can't even tell you what any of this means because I do not play each single game on the planet and Dragon Age has by no means been an enormous one for me.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. I haven't caught up. I'm thus far behind. I do not even know the place to look. I'm sorry. Go on with out me. Inform my parents I liked them. This one is known as Endless Dungeon.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. It is Crimson Desert -- Geoff tells everyone it options precise gameplay footage and it's beautiful. It is an MMO with a strong single player and we have known about it for a while however right here comes some large gameplay. It seems to be absolutely immaculate. Geoff was not lying. The MOUNTAINS. I need to run alongside them and dip my face within the cold streams and bring the water to my face. It seems... actual? SNOW. Let me lay in it. Mud. Ew. Bad.
We're Again TO AWARDS Here Individuals. John David Washington, who plays a personality known as Narrative within the movie Tenet, is giving out the award for Best Narrative. We are by means of the trying glass right here, folks. This is VIDEO Video games. Alright, he publicizes the winner because the Last of Us Half 2. This is the third? award... for TLOU2? I feel so.
MUPPETS TIME. We are now within the Muppets a part of the present, which has turn out to be a standard a part of the game Awards, following the success of Beaker and Goose final 12 months. He's here for a WORLD PREMIERE. It's... Overcooked is including the Swedish Chef. Okay, yes, that passes as a World Premiere I suppose!
Is anyone reading this? Please help me. I am trapped within the video video games sales and advert machine. Reggie, is that you simply? Are you able to assist me? Anyone? Is somebody there? [limitless screaming]
Whoa, sorry about that. It has been a weird 10 minutes. We had an advert that will help you stop vaping, a Call of Obligation trailer and now we're going into a brief music session to rejoice Mario turning 35 years old. Oh man, the drummer was killing it! I am again. This makes me completely satisfied. I am okay. Thanks on your concern.
AWARDS TIME. Wow, it's Gal Gadot! Surprise Woman herself. She's here to current the Video games for Affect awards, which works to inform Me Why. That is a cracking recreation.
STRAIGHT INTO WORLD PREMIERE. And it is Vin Diesel. Vin DIESEL. He's right here without any sort of fast automobile or a shirt. He's fighting some dudes and next minute a freaking dinosaur appears out of the forest. AND EATS A person. What the hell, this is the most effective Fast & Furious but. IT HAS FEATHERS. It is ARK II, starring Vin Diesel. Unsure if the "starring Vin Diesel" Needs to be in the title or not, however I might say so. The staff additionally announce an Ark animated sequence. A Dinosaur Anime. Dinosaurs are back. 2021, 2022. I am calling it.
The Vin Diesel game has memes going in every single place. It's lovely.
TRAILER TIME. It is for Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout. Numerous dissonance for me with this one. It is showing a winter wonderland and down here in Australia it is FREAKING Sizzling. It was 120 degrees Fahrenheit. I need summer clothes. Shorts please!
GAMEPLAY REVEAL. Odyssey: Elite Harmful means that you can discover on foot for the first time. The music is Area Oddity by David Bowie because you just cannot do sci-fi without Major Tom or Floor Control. It makes sense. Arrives in Early 2021.
A short trailer for Checkpoint which brings mental well being sources to the gaming neighborhood. Good.
TRAILERSsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. They will be at the underside of the web page, no world premieres in right here however have a look anyway.
AWARDS TIME. We're again with Nolan North, the man of 1,000 totally different video sport voices. He's presenting the best Multiplayer Recreation and it goes to the Among Us staff. This is wonderful.

AWARD TIME. Now we are into the perfect Fighting Game which is sneakily the award for the game with the best use of a colon, :, because solely Mortal Kombat doesn't embody one. Would you believe it though... the colon has let games down yet again. Colons are banned. Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate takes it home.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. Right here we go again people. This one is quick-paced. Coming 2021, it is Returnal.

Josef Fares is here now for a WORLD "Unique" he calls it... It is a WORLD PREMIERE however we do not mind as a result of he is a bundle of joy. Just loves messing around. Chances are you'll remember him from that point he swore at the sport Awards and was instantly a star. He is revealing gameplay from It Takes Two, which appears to be like fairly playful. Gal Gadot would probably say it was "fun," you would assume. Geoff throws in that he is friends with Josef and saw the sport last time he was in Stockholm... what does Geoff do all 12 months besides play video games.
REGGIE TIME. Digital camera AND AUDIO IS Average Similar to I might Need AND Anticipate. He's here to announce an AWARD which is the Innovation in Accessibility award. He says gaming is for everybody and gosh darn it, Reggie you're proper. The award goes to The Last of Us Half 2.
WORLD PREMIERE. This one is for The Elder Scrolls On-line, which is getting a new growth in 2021. The expansion is known as Elder Scrolls Online: Gates of Oblivion. The trailer is purely cinematic and does not give too much away.
AWARDS TIME. It's the award for Greatest Cell Game and it goes to Among Us. It's their second award of the night time. They're overwhelmed and so happy. It was launched in 2018, however I suppose it's a factor this year so... you possibly can win whenever. Trying ahead to Pong's inevitable comeback.
It is One other WORLD PREMIERE FOR YOU AND FOR ME. This one is Monster Hunter Rise. A huge franchise that I do not really understand but people love it so, let's go for all you Monster Hunter followers. Get pleasure from.
We're again with Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam lead singer and he says he actually appreciates how Future Days was used within the Last of Us Part 2. I love that he seems real about video games as a medium and that was a very nice little rendition. Hoped he'd belt out Jeremy, if I'm being totally trustworthy.
I cannot get over Geoff's sneakers and swimsuit combination. I simply cannot. It is bad.
WORLD PREMIERE. We are out within the Wild West, I believe? All the pieces goes dark. Here is some guns. A man walking. Monsters being shot. This is VIDEO Video games, folks. There's nothing fairly like video games. Shoot a thing, hit a thing, kill a factor. You gotta like it. It is known as EVIL WEST and it's... I imply, the title is sufficient proper? Haha. I actually do love video video games, guys, I swear.
Just a little Amongst Us announcement now -- it is getting a brand new map referred to as "The Airship" that will likely be ready in "Early 2021." There can be a Geoff Keighley mask in Among Us now... he's laughing about it however inside, Geoff, I can tell. It is a second for him. The mask.
AWARDS TIME. It's Content Creator of the Year time. "They unified us all with our shared ardour for play," says Jacksepticeye. Valkyrae takes dwelling this award. Somebody will have to elucidate this one to me. I'm the science editor so I, uh... I'm still caught up on the Ark 2 dinosaur feathers and the freakin' sport about CALLISTO. Like, hey!
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. It is Fortnite... and HALO? Master Chief is becoming a member of Fortnite. There you go. He is accessible tonight and there's extra Halo coming as nicely. Ninja shows up in one other trailer that includes the Purple vs. Blue characters Sarge and Griff. There's a new map: Halo's Blood Gulch is in creative mode and you may play Capture the Flag, tonight! And yet another thing... Walking Lifeless characters Michonne and Daryl Dixon are also in Fortnite. Okay? Look, we all principally dwell in Fortnite now. It is the Matrix.
This all feels like a fever dream to me. I don't have any idea of time or reality. Do I reside in Fortnite... or has Fortnite lived within me all along? And the friends I made alongside the way in which? They're gone... they've disappeared into the ether. They've dissolved away; our bodies of pure hype rise of their place. But they cannot speak. They only play video game trailers. If you are studying this, turn again now. You cannot go any deeper. Your bones will flip to mud, your teeth will fall out... the hair on your head will slide off your skull. There's nothing right here but video recreation. Video game is every part.
Everyone going okay? Great! We're in the home stretch I feel, there should be like 30 minutes left at most? I hope so. Each now an again we flick again to a Pokemon GO! advert known as Wooper Watch.

But there's one final award Geoff tells me. It is going to finish. This is the end. Thanks.
ONE. Final. WORLD. PREMIERE. MEANS. ITS. Nearly. OVER. We're going by means of house and i really feel like this might be Starfield no? The most recent from Bethesda? I'm, definitively, finished with video games perpetually after this but... this may deliver me back. It's bringing me again. Nope. It's Mass Effect. No particulars, nevertheless it simply says Mass Impact will continue... Fairly big!
It is the Final AWARD. The game OF THE 12 months. If there's any indication from the rest of the night time we're going to get a last of Us Half 2 win.
